88 mj 4x4 conversion
Vandenborg1 replied to Vandenborg1's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Ok so I have put the engine and Transmission in nv3550 and the rebuilt original 4.0 but I'm having an issue with the Trans mount am I missing a peice? Mount has 2 bolt holes Trans has 4? Also I think I have to pull it out anyway if anyone can confirm I'd appreciate it I swapped the flywheel that went with the new trans from an 00/01 cherokee. I read something saying the cops read the old flywheel differently? -

I f***** up lol I hooked it up and didn't tie it up and wound up against the exhaust..... but it's in peices right now so I'll get to that when she's back together and running -
88 mj 4x4 conversion
Vandenborg1 replied to Vandenborg1's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
So now I've found a nv3550 out of a cherokee and an np231 down to the hunt for some axles thinking 8.25 trying to find a donor so I can steal some brackets etc -
So I have an 88 mj with a ba10/ I want to convert it to 4x4. I'm trying to find out my best option here. I've spent hours looking for donors and everything i find is auto. i want to stick with the manual, and what I've read says i can take an ax15 out of a dakota change out the bell housing and the t-case from the dakota will work is this wrong? Is there anything else I would need besides the obvious/crossmember?

No reverse lights 88 mj ba10
Vandenborg1 replied to Vandenborg1's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Thank you I found it I guess when they did the engine rebuild before i bought it they left it topside now I've got voltage to the switch running about 9v DC but still no lights I'm guessing the switch but i can't figure out how to test they send out voltage on it besides making sure the switch is depressed and looking at the lights -
So today I have replaced the turn signal switch. I'm glad I was right on replacing it although I probably could have just cleaned the old one up... it was extremely coroded now all my turn signals work propperly after replacing the front passenger side connector. I had tried cleaning the corrosion out on it but no luck so I want to the junk yard and picked one up. While I was there I picked up the wiper speed control box out of a xj the part looks different, it still has the same connectors just a different shape but it seems to work for the most part. I have the variable speed control, but on the low and high it just runs one speed which is fine to me because I can just use the variable to slow it down. Now I have the reverse lights and the horn to work on I think I have the horn on it's way to being fixed, no relay, but I'll have to wait till tomorrow to pick one up.

So I have found my reverse switch on my 88 mj's ba10 but the problem I noticed is that the plug was plugged in but about 2 feet of wire was draped over the top of the tranny and the other connector was hanging I have looked but can't seem to find where it plugs in can anyone help

So I'm trying to get a list together on doing an nv3550 swap in my 88 mj but its currently 2wd so I'm trying to figure out what my best option is here. What t-case? will I need a custom driveshaft or can I buy one somewhere? Will my bell fit or will I need an adapter? Any other recommendations i missed?

So now I've got her running a whole lot better had the exhaust welded instead of just clamped and figured out why it would bog on me when at higher speeds which was the balance resistor not sending enough voltage to the fuel pump therefore losing fuel pressure in the long run... Next step is to fix the fuse box....

Comanche with 1997 4.0 bogging issues
Vandenborg1 replied to Eric sicca's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I have it figured out the balance resistor had gone bad and was dropping the voltage to low therefore not enough fuel was being sent up when running. Voltage should be between 10-14v I was getting 8.9 at best at idle probably worse once it heated up....- 34 replies

It's possible I'll check tomorrow

I have not done any of cruisers tips or checked pressure

How can you tell

Decided to do a bit of a tune up changed out plugs and wires fuel filter even did the fuel pump and threw some injector cleaner in it..... she runs smoother now but still has some stall in it running down the road when you really get her going. As of right now I just let out and ease back in and she picks up fine any ideas?

After that had some idle issues so my father in law looked at it and let me know the cat was stopped up so we cut it out theew in a new section of pipe and still had some hiccups
-
When I picked it up it had some overheating issues so after some research I went ahead and did the Open system conversion

closed to open cooling system

Yes I have overheating problems -
